Five years age, the Hahnemann Medical College and Hospital was designated as a Radiation Therapy Center. Since that time - thanks to funding from the Center Grant and other sources - considerable progress has been made. Funding of the current continuation application will enable the Center to progress further in bringing together those disciplines dealing with cancer, thereby producing optimum conditions for cancer clinical research, service to patients, basic cancer research, and training of physicians and paramedical personnel for cancer research and treatment. Major needs of the Center consist of more nearly adequate facilities and equipment for research assignments as well as basic science, administrative and clinical personnel to facilitate the research program.
